Henry, Trust me, that was my first suggestion to this client... Of course, the client is the CIO, which means that he has read a lot of magazines, and has made his executive decision. Knows just enough to be dangerous or a PITA (and in the end the end, aren't those one in the same?). I used to deal with Panasonic, and that is all I want to do currently is learn about another piece of legacy crap that I am trying to get out of the equation!
Well, that makes things a little more difficult, but maybe not... For the first could of SIP endpoints that I am bringing there, I connected the * via FXO to the 96... This allows them to play with the features of *, and they can still have some connectivity with the 96. I am with you 100% in getting rid of the basics keysystem and switch over to *, but it has been a hard sell... Thanks for the information... On 2/27/07, Henry L.Coleman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
The Toshiba has a single line extension unit which allows one analog phone and one can always interface a key system or PBX to Asterisk via FXO to FXS convertion. If you want to use the IVR in * to select extensions on the Toshiba then you will have a problem as the incoming calls can only use the intercom channel. As with most key systems the concept is to use the intercom channel to announce a call pickup on a line number eg "you have a call on line one" with a PBX the called person only has to hold the line while the call is transfered. Actually, a client of mine recently completely swapped a Toshiba system for an * solution. the more lines and stations the key system has the more likely an * solution will be accepted. Henry L.
